  1. Hello and a warm welcome to Schoolmates . My name is Miriam. Schoolmate learning videos help you understand all
  2. school topics much more easily and clearly. But please always remember to use the pause button if something went
  3. too fast for you. Because only when every detail is clear to you can you easily understand the rest. In the
  4. first part of the video series on basic spelling rules, we will deal with capitalization and lowercase letters.
  5. But why do we write some words with a capital letter and some with a lowercase letter at all? Capitalization
  6. and lowercase letters help you to understand texts better. The rules for this are strictly defined. An important
  7. rule is that sentence beginnings, names , and nouns are always capitalized. Now you are surely asking yourselves how to
  8. recognize a noun. Nouns designate names , e.g., Laura, living beings like the turtle, things, e.g., the table, or
  9. concepts, e.g., the surprise, and they are often accompanied by definite or indefinite articles. If the topic of
  10. articles is still unclear to you or you have questions about it, you are welcome to watch the video on nouns and
  11. articles that we have prepared for you. To recognize nouns, you can use various test methods. We will take a look at
  12. these together now. As already mentioned, an article is a signal that it is a noun. You can ask yourself the
  13. following question for this. If there is an article relating to the word in front of it, then it is a noun and is
  14. capitalized. E.g., the hare, the property, or the wind. But watch out, there are also hidden articles. Many
  15. are used in an abbreviated form. For example, the word "im" contains "in dem ," meaning the article "dem.""Ins"
  16. stands for "in das.""Am" written out is "an dem.""Zum" is actually "zu dem," and in "fürs,""für das" is hidden.
  17. Here is another example of this. I am going into the house. The article "das" is hidden in the word "ins." Therefore,
  18. "house" is a noun and is capitalized. The second test method is the adjective test. An adjective is a describing word
  19. that characterizes something with a specific property. Adjectives are, for example, the words big, old, thick,
  20. hardworking, friendly, and so on. So you can ask yourself, can you put an adjective in front of the word? In the
  21. sentence "we paint a picture," the adjective "beautiful" can be inserted, for example. This then creates the
  22. sentence, "we paint a beautiful picture .""Picture" is then the noun, as an adjective can stand in front of it.
  23. Therefore, "picture" is then capitalized. Another signal for recognizing nouns is the suffix.
  24. Examples of noun suffixes are-ung, - heit, -keit, -nis, -schaft, -tum, and so on. So, you are at the end of a word
  25. . Matching nouns could then be community, recovery, wealth, kingship, and reality. Suffixes can therefore
  26. also help you to recognize nouns. The last test you can perform to identify a noun is to pay attention to its meaning
  27. . For this, you can ask yourself: Is the word a living being or an object? For example, a rabbit, a fox, a
  28. cupboard, or a table? Because, as stated at the beginning, living beings or things are always nouns and are
  29. therefore capitalized. Here you can see an overview of the various test methods with which you can identify a noun.
  30. Once you have identified it, you must always capitalize it. Besides nouns, there is also so-called nominalization.
  31. In nominalization, verbs—action words —and adjectives—descriptive words —are used as nouns. Nominalized words
  32. are then also capitalized. There are also various indicators that allow you to easily recognize nominalization.
  33. Just like with nouns, you can ask yourself if there is an article before the word. For example, Anna's laughter
  34. sounds nice. "The laughter" is a nominalized verb, because "laughing" is actually a verb, since you can ask
  35. about it with "What is it doing?" The article "the" now stands before the actual verb. It was therefore used as a
  36. noun here. Another indicator for nominalization is when an indefinite quantifier precedes the word, such as
  37. everything, much, nothing, barely, or something, then you capitalize it and it is nominalized. Here is an example
  38. of that. A lot of exciting things have happened lately. This is a nominalized adjective. In other words, a
  39. descriptive word. The adjective is exciting. You ask about it with, how is it? Exciting. Since the quantifier "a
  40. lot" stands before the adjective, it has been nominalized and is capitalized . So you should remember: Nouns or
  41. nominalizations are always capitalized. Sentence beginnings and names are also capitalized. Everything else you write
  42. in lowercase, for example: verbs ( action words), adjectives (descriptive words), pronouns, articles (companion
  43. words), adverbs (words that describe how, when, and why something happens), prepositions (relational words),
  44. conjunctions (connecting words like but , however, for, etc.), and numbers. To check your knowledge of capitalization
  45. once more, we have a small practice exercise for you that you are welcome to work on. Try writing the following
  46. sentences with correct capitalization. Don't forget that the beginnings of sentences are capitalized. Pause the
  47. video now for a moment to think about the task. Surely this task was no problem at all for you anymore. Here we
  48. have the solutions to the various sentences now. You can go ahead and compare these with your sentences. That
  49. was all you need to know about capitalization for a good grade. You can find many more Schoolmate learning
